Ep 319: How To Cure Your Addiction To Feeling Behind

The Perfectionism Project

While perfectionists want everything in their lives to be perfectly organised, the irony is that they actually stop themselves from creating this reality - without even realising it! And one of the reasons they do this is because of their secret addiction to feeling behind.

Most perfectionists would swear that they don’t want to feel behind, so it can be confronting to realise that you might be manufacturing behindness (if that’s a word!) in your life. In this episode I’m talking about why we do this, 2 signs that you’re secretly addicted to chaos and what to do about it.

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

• Why perfectionists can become addicted to feeling behind
• The sneaky ways perfectionists make themselves feel more behind
• The real reason you never feel completely organised
• How feeling behind is secretly serving you
• Two ways that the addiction to feeling behind manifests for perfectionists
• How to stop being addicted to feeling behind
